Throughout the 1970s, Dr. Samuel J. Citron took it upon himself to interview leading authorities on special topics in contemporary Jewish history, mostly relating to the State of Israel. Over the course of 10 years of painstaking work, he completed the immense task of pulling together personal accounts of many of the more significant events of the last hundred years. The realities of life in the early Yishuv required the creation of defense groups, armies, and even spies allied with the British.

Forgotten is a search for hidden or neglected memorials and places in historic Palestine - now Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories - and what they might tell us about the land and the people who live on our small slip of earth between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River. From ancient city ruins to the Nabi 'Ukkasha mosque and tomb, acclaimed writers and researchers Raja Shehadeh and Penny Johnson ask: what has been memorialised, and what lies unseen, abandoned or erased - and why?

קו השבר ברור: מצד אחד ניצבת אליטה בעלת כושר ניידות ואוריינטציה בינלאומית, שחבריה יכולים להרגיש בבית כמעט בכל פינה ברחבי העולם; מצד שני ניצבים המוני האזרחים הנייחים האחוזים בשורשיהם: קשורים בכבלי רגש לנוף מולדתם ולמסורת עמם, תלויים לפרנסתם בשוק מקומי, ומנהלים את חייהם בשפה מקומית. מעל הכול, כוחם הפוליטי תלוי במנגנון הדמוקרטי של מדינת הלאום.

While a a midwife wasn’t mentioned in the Biblical version of The Christmas story—but then again, neither was morning sickness or labor pains, which Mary undoubtedly experienced. As such, because of the extreme young age of the mother (some experts figure she was between 14 and 18 years old), their harsh surroundings (A stable carved in a rock), and the lack of older female relatives available to assist, Joseph fetching the services of a midwife is not so difficult to imagine.

Jean Amérys Essays, die zwischen 1969 und 1976 geschrieben wurden, erschrecken geradezu durch ihre Aktualität. Sie lesen sich in ihrer Prägnanz, als wären sie für den heutigen Tag geschrieben. Ausgehend von seinem Judesein, das ihm von den Nürnberger Gesetzen aufgezwungen wurde, beschreibt Jean Améry seine existentielle Bindung an Israel, seine Solidarität ist jedoch nicht bedingungslos. Und doch ist für ihn Israel das Land, das allen entrechteten Juden der Welt den aufrechten Gang gelehrt hat.

Nasser Abu Srour grew up in a refugee camp in the West Bank, on the outskirts of Bethlehem. As a child, he played in its shadow and explored the little world within the camp.

This is the story of how, over thirty years in captivity, he crafted a new definition of freedom. Turning to writings by philosophers as varied as Derrida, Kirkegaard and Freud, he begins to let go of freedom...

Miriam! What a fascinating person. What a joy it has been to unpack her life story. I do hope you find her as enthralling as I did.

God promised His land to the Jewish people as an everlasting possession as part of an eternal covenant He made with their forefather, Abraham. After two exiles and centuries of dispersion, millions of Jewish people have been drawn back to the land—and since the establishment of the modern State of Israel on May 14, 1948, millions of Christians have been welcomed as pilgrims to experience it for themselves.

La genèse du conflit israélo-arabe, dont l'actualité est surabondamment couverte par les médias, demeure paradoxalement mal connue. Si c'est au sortir de la Première Guerre mondiale que se cristallise ce qui n'est pas seulement le choc de deux nationalismes, mais un affrontement culturel recouvert par un conflit " religieux " et d'innombrables polémiques sur la nature du projet sioniste, c'est bien avant 1914 qu'il a pris forme dans le discours à la fois des élites arabes, de la vieille communauté juive séfarade et des sionistes d'Europe orientale.
